Evening all, sorry I got here too late to start the quiz. Had to go pick up my new van after work. Graham has been driving his dads car and the van wasnt too far from where his dad works, so the plan was to go and get the van in Grahams dads car, then I was to follow him round to his dads work and drop off the car, then we were gonna have a little spin in the van. Oh no, nothing ever goes to plan when Graham and travel are involved . Got the van, Graham then got in the van and preceeded to give a lecture on deisel engines . He said I had to follow him, coz i dont know exactly where his dads work is but I know its in Dyce and close to the airport. On following him a short distance, I thought, where the hell is he going coz we were actually heading out of Dyce. I kept following coz i had no option. He only made me drive to Afford, 30 miles away, to drop the car at his dads house . |

It was worse driving out there coz i am not too confident a driver on roads i dont know too well or dont do often. On starting the van, I realised I hadnt positioned my seat properly but thought I was just going a short way and would sort it then So that hasnt helped with my back pain much. On the drive back, he kept calling people on his mobile and telling them that I was all over the road and going too slow Then he kept saying things like, see this button here?, to which i would say, NO!!! I am bloody driving. Then he gave me another lecture on hos to drive a van, the use of the mirrors for manouvering and parking blah blah blah. On our return to Aberdeen, I pulled in to a large parking space nose first and he took a sharp intake of breath before giving yet another lecture on reverse parking. But yes, I had good fun driving it and felt a little exhillerated by it, very very different from driving my wee polo |

What is it about men that makes them think they are the best drivers, I make a point of never driving my Hubby now, if I did, there would be a murder!!! |

I think he was just annoyed that I wouldnt let him drive the new van, but I need to get used to it and need the experience to get my confidence up. Fortunately I come equiped with a listening off button just for these occasions, other wise there would have been a murder a long time ago |
